[Greek Mythology] Beside the Throne

The Sea Emperor's big wedding shocked the entire Greek god world.

The new sea emperor Poseidon will marry the ocean nymph Amphitrite, the daughter of the ocean god.

All the gods received the invitation from the Neptune, but the invitations to Hesperides and Hades were presented by the Neptune himself. Even Zeus, the god-king of Mount Olympus, did not receive such treatment.

When Poseidon, the emperor of the sea, was in high spirits, he pulled out a chair and sat on it, took out the prepared invitation card from his arms and put it on the table, and said to Hera: "Next month, don't be late for my wedding. "

Poseidon's handsome face became resolute, and it seemed that his elder brother seemed to have grown up a lot after being tested by Pentheus and Oceanus.

Hera accepted the invitation and replied, "Congratulations."

In this world where strength and status are valued, it is really difficult for Poseidon to marry a sea fairy under divine power in order to win over the power of the sea god.But judging by his appearance, he should be satisfied with the Empress Amphitrite.

"I didn't expect you to be the first to get married among them." Campe sat on the seat with his legs crossed, staggering, not talking about the elegance of the gods, but after all, he was originally a hell dragon, and no one would take these rules Bind him.

Hera on one side was sitting dignifiedly in a robe, her elegant neck exposed with the reserved demeanor of a god.

Campe's words obviously put aside Zeus, who had changed several queens, and he was referring to Hades, Poseidon and Hera.

"Yeah, I can't help being happy with each other." Poseidon answered him, looking at the boy-like dragon with blue eyes and said with a smile: "If you envy me, I can go to the ocean to find a beautiful female dragon to match you." Right."

There is only one hell dragon in this world, Campe, and the other dragons are either of impure blood or inferior strength.

Campe dismissed Poseidon's proposal.

He put his arms around Hera who was sitting watching the scene of the two fighting each other, rubbed his face against Hera's chin and said, "Compared to those dragons, you should keep it for yourself. They are no match for Hera."

His action reminded Poseidon that hounds raised by humans were also intimate with their owners in this way.

Hera poked Campe's face away with her fingers in disgust, and put a charming smirk on his face.

"Touch me again and I will cut off your claws."

Campe, who heard Hera's words, immediately let go of Hera's hand, and sat on the seat with his mouth pursed.Like a human baby who can't get candy.

Well, even though he was fearless, he was afraid that Hera would be mad at him for ignoring him.

Campe knew that Hera seldom got angry, but when she got angry, she could hold grudges for a long time.

He remembered how he became a dragon and loosened his muscles and bones before, but he brought Hera back from the outside to bring back the lily he had just planted, and his tail twitched to pieces.

Hera ignored him for several days, no matter how he tried to coax him, he couldn't coax him well.In the end, he went outside to find Demeter and asked for some lilies before planting them back to the original place, so Hera was willing to talk to him.

But when he knew that he asked Demeter for those lilies, Hera ignored him again...

Are all gods so difficult to serve?The dragon Campe all thought depressingly.

After gossiping with Poseidon they talk about Demeter.

Since Demeter stayed in Olympus and did not go back to Hesperides with them, Hera and Poseidon, who had never seen her face again, had complicated psychology towards Demeter.

Demeter is now one of the main gods of Olympus, and her priesthood is the goddess of grain in charge of agriculture.Not only that, but she also became the lover of Zeus.

After the death of Zeus's first wife, Metis, he immediately married a second wife.It was none other than Themis, the goddess of justice who advised Zeus in the battle of the Titans.

But after thinking about it, I also know that this marriage is not just out of the love between the man and the woman, but also reflects the balance between the Titans and the new theocracy.The Titan gods urgently need to be attached to powerful forces, and the new god king also needs their support.

The marriage of Zeus and Themis began and ended very quickly.They are both smart people, and it's all just what they need.

Thinking of the goddess currently sitting on the throne of the Queen of God, Hera remembered that she had some relationship with Poseidon.

"Eurynome is also the daughter of Ocean God?" Hera said to Poseidon.

Metis, Amphitrite, and Eurynome were daughters of Oceanus and Tesis.

Hearing Hera say this, Poseidon had no choice but to admit: "Yes, she is Anfei's sister and Metis' sister."

Zeus married another sea goddess. Could it be that he wanted to make up for the relationship with the ocean god? After all, Metis was eaten by him.Hera tapped her finger on the smooth tabletop thinking.

The two gods who hadn't seen each other for a long time chatted and forgot the time.

Because Poseidon had to go to Hades, he left Hesperides after bidding farewell to Hera.

Holding the invitation, Hera was thinking about what to give Poseidon as a wedding gift.

Time flies quickly, and a month is fleeting.

Within a month, Iris, the goddess of the rainbow, became Hera's messenger.Not only that, but by the way, she also served as Hesperides' steward, Hera's maid, dragon breeder, and so on.

Aerys, however, enjoyed it.Because her current master is Hera, the god she wants to serve with all her heart.

"Your Highness, use this." After Aerys arrived, Hera's clothes were all arranged by her.

Aerys held a forehead ornament carefully carved and inlaid with white gemstones in his hand and wanted to wear it for Hera, but Hera showed a look of resistance.

The Dragon Clan has always liked such shiny things.Khan strongly agrees with Aerys' proposal to ask Hera to wear this at the Neptune's wedding.

This is one of a box of treasures sent by Hades earlier.

Hades is not only Pluto but also the god of underground wealth.He has so many precious stones and minerals that it would make any goddess jealous.

However, he was not interested in these gems, and always sent them to Hesperides box by box.

It is estimated that let the goddess know that Hesperides hides so many precious gems, and they all want to sneak in and steal them.

Hera felt that the forehead ornament chosen by Iris was too exaggerated, but she still agreed to wear it under the insistence of Yi Shen Yi Long.

The brilliance of this white gemstone is the same as that of the stars, extremely eye-catching.But wearing it on Hera's forehead is just icing on the cake, adding to the divine dignity of the gods.

The only one who can overwhelm the brilliance of the white gemstone is Hera, who is extremely beautiful.

In a temple under the sea.

The goddess Eurynome is choosing the right jewelry to add color to her sister Amphitrite's makeup.Her wedding with Zeus was dull, so she was very concerned about Amphitrite's wedding.

Holding a hair ornament inlaid with aquamarine and pearls, Eurynome asked Amphitrite who was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, "Is it good to use this?"

Amphitrite nodded with a smile, her face was filled with anticipation and joy for the wedding.

Affected by her smile, Eurynome joyfully put the hair accessories into the high bun behind the sea and carefully adjusted the angle, striving for perfection.

The relationship between the two was very good in the Sea of ​​the World, and now one of them has become the queen of Olympus and the other has become the queen of the ocean.

Amphitrite took Eurynome's hand and said, "I am so happy."

Tears of joy welled up in her eyes.

Eurynome wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and she said, "Go, Poseidon is still waiting for you on the temple."

Amphitrite nodded.

Eurynome covered her with a layer of silver woven soft gauze, and several ocean nymphs walked behind the sea queen and picked up the extremely long skirts.

A group of them walked to the temple.

Hades was already with Poseidon when Hera arrived.Around them, a group of gods came to congratulate them.

Hera followed Iris and Campe.

Seeing Hera's arrival, Hades and Poseidon finished chatting with the surrounding gods and walked towards Hera.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." Poseidon said with some complaints.If it weren't for coming out to wait for Hera, he and Hades wouldn't be dragged by these gods to talk, talking endlessly.

Seeing Hera dressed up to attend this time, Poseidon said in surprise: "You look so good today." He stared at the beautiful white gemstone on Hera's forehead and planned to get one for Amphitrite.

"..." Although Poseidon's words were praises, why did he feel like he was hurting himself?Hera cursed in her heart.

Hades saw that this was one of the boxes he gave Hera, and he saw that there was another goddess behind Hera who was about to ask, Hera saw it and said, "Iris, my envoy. "

Aerys nodded to Hades and Poseidon.

Although she is Hera's envoy, she is also a third-generation god.A generation of sea god Pentheus is her grandfather.But standing in front of her were two Lords of the God Realm, she couldn't be rude.

After Hera arrived, Zeus also followed.

He wears the crown of the god king on his head, and the red gemstones are shining on the crown, indicating his status and honor.

Behind him was a group of gods and nymphs, but there Hera saw the long-lost sister Demeter.

Demeter was wearing a green gown, embroidered with nasturtiums in gold thread, and it was very gorgeous.

Her appearance became mature and dignified, and it was difficult for Hera to see the innocent aura of Demeter when she was a girl.

Demeter, who had become the goddess of grain, walked in following Zeus' footsteps, and she saw several brothers whom she had not seen for a long time.

She wanted to show a smile towards Hera Hades, but the gloomy face concealed the corners of her raised lips.

"She doesn't seem to be doing well?" Poseidon whispered in Hera's ear.

After Poseidon finished speaking, he walked towards Zeus as the emperor of the sea.

After a wave of mutual flattery, led by the God King and the Sea Emperor, the gods took their seats.

Hera and Hades glanced at each other and said in a low voice, "Poseidon is quite familiar with these things."

"If he wants to be the Emperor of the Sea, he will naturally not be able to master these diplomatic rhetoric." Hades said.

"What about you?" Hera asked Hades.

Hades smiled silently.

"Me too."

"Okay." Hera picked up the jug on the table and poured wine for herself and Hades.

Hera always felt that the ocean's wine smelled like seaweed, but she drank it anyway.

"It doesn't taste very good." Hades also tasted the bad taste.

"Next time I'll bring you some pomegranate wine I brewed."

"it is good."

At Poseidon's wedding, Hera gave the two golden pomegranate trees she planted as a gift to the Queen of the Sea and the Queen of the Sea.

Hades asked his attendants to bring a box of treasures, and opened the lid under the amazement of the gods. The shining brilliance almost blinded the eyes of the gods.

This move caused the gods to refresh their understanding of Pluto once again.

It turns out that Pluto doesn't like to talk, he has facial paralysis, or he's a moron!

Many goddesses and gods who have goddesses at home who have witnessed this scene are already secretly preparing to marry Pluto.

There are dozens of Hesperides boxes of this kind.Campe thought disdainfully.

This group of uninformed gods... Campe despised again.

Looking back at Hera's beautiful jawline, Campe thought Hera was really pretty.

He looked at Hera with his chin on his hand, and Hera turned his head and poked Campe's forehead with his hand, with a clear meaning in his eyes, "If you look at it again, I will dig your eyes out."

Poseidon and Amphitrite received the blessings of the gods, and for a while no one paid attention to Hera and Hades sitting aside.

Zeus sat high on one side, and he watched the interaction between Hera and the dragon Campe with deep eyes.

Eurynome followed Zeus' eyes and looked towards Hera.

At the wedding between her and Zeus, Hera didn't come at all except for Hades Poseidon's presence.Eurynome, who had never met Hera, asked Zeus, "Is he your third brother?"

At that time, the gods sent by Zeus could not find Hesperides and returned to Olympus.Zeus thought that Hera was not present on purpose, but Hera did not receive the invitation at all.In the end, it was only from Hestia that Zeus had changed his queen.

Hera did not go to the wedding of the last goddess of justice Themis and Zeus. At that time, he went to the earth to see the human race.People are not in the Hesperides at all.

Hera missed both Zeus's weddings perfectly.

Zeus was extremely dissatisfied with this.He thought Hera didn't take him seriously at all.

"Hmm." He answered his wife Eurynome's words indifferently, Zeus picked up the glass but couldn't drink it at all in the face of the intimacy between Hera and Campe.

He put the wine glass on the table, and the wine splashed out and landed on the table.

Seeing this scene, Demeter took out a handkerchief and wanted to wipe Zeus' hands stained with wine.

But Zeus stood up regardless of Demeter's movement.

"Zeus?" Eurynome called him from behind Zeus, but Zeus walked out of the temple regardless of his wife.

Fortunately, all the gods were paying attention to the sea emperor's wedding, and no one paid attention to the whereabouts of the god king.

Eurynome sat in her seat with a disappointed face, and Demeter had the same expression as her.

Feeling a little chest tight after drinking this wine, Hera left the seat.

He refused to follow Iris and Campe, and wanted to visit the garden under the sea alone.

When he was in the waters of Crete, he didn't even bother to look at the scenery in the sea, but this time he could see enough.

While walking by the coral reef and admiring the fish shells of different colors in the sea, I was thinking about whether to bring a few fish back to Hesperides for raising.

Just walking idly like this, Hera suddenly heard a voice.

"You're having a really good time."

Hera turned her head and saw Zeus standing behind him in the costume of a god king. It was Zeus who said that sentence just now.

Thinking that Zeus had nothing to do and wanted to provoke him, Hera glanced at him and refused to talk to him at all, and continued to look back at herself to play.

Hera's ignoring attitude angered Zeus, who was still in a state of displeasure.

He stepped forward and grabbed Hera's arm and said, "Is my good brother so unwilling to see me?"

"Indeed." Hera replied.

He added divine power to push Zeus's hand holding his arm away, obviously not wanting to have a word with Zeus.

He doesn't like Zeus, obviously.

Hera is a person who doesn't like trouble, he disdains to flirt with Zeus.

Hera felt that there was no need to talk more about the younger brother who was favored by the mother god.

However, Zeus didn't want to let Hera just go away.

"Hera, have you forgotten our previous agreement?" Zeus said with a smile, but the expression revealed by his eyes was not as bright and innocent as his smile.

"Oh..." Hera didn't expect that Zeus, who had deceived the position of God King and fooled the entire God Realm, would dare to mention the previous agreement with herself.

However, this is the last time.

Seeing that Hera had no intention of reneging, Zeus said, "Alcyonius is dissatisfied with my rule."

"You want me to solve him?" Hera asked with narrowed eyes. He felt that Zeus' request was not that simple.

"Yes." My dear brother.Zeus replied.
